This!! Entirely this!!

I’m glad I read this cause I was thinking I’d do this but this list changed my mind ;)

After hearing about Nutty Putty, I’ll never go underground

As an ex-smoker, I can say this to whoever feels like trying: don't. It's the stupidest vice ever. You'll be literally paying to slowly make yourself sick and possibly have a gruesome death. All just for a short stress/anxiety/boredom relief. Smoking will always hunt you. It is always lurking around your subconscious mind waiting for the right trigger to come back with full force. It will never leave you; you just learn to ignore it and replace it with something healthier. But it's there. I willingly paid for it to be there. My biggest regret. Get a hobby instead. Learn EFT or meditation or other ways to deal with stress and anxiety peaks. Thank you for reading my TED-talk. Merry Christmas!

Seconded

An unfortunate picture choice

ok, that I agree with.

It really just tastes salty, smells more foul than I have words to describe though

Nope. Nope, Nope. Hard pass. Just Google'd it: translates as rotten cheese in Sardinian including wriggling maggots and their cheesy excretions.

I also don’t want the ship to sink. I’ve had a fear of being anywhere in or near a body of water ever since I was 5

For those wondering, Balut is a fertilized developing egg embryo that is boiled or steamed and eaten from the shell.

Illinoisan here, can confirm, but also seems like more drunk driving everywhere since the pandemic.

Oh hell no

I don't like the taste of alcohol.

Plus they can wreck your kidneys 😑

I did skydiving twice. You are attached to your instructor's front side. You take off the plane backwards, so the instructor literally "pushes" you out of the plane... like "ok, set ready GO!" And off you are. Yes, terrifying. The first few seconds when your body is registering that is falling are the most violent. You can feel all the cells in your body screaming, and there's nothing you can do to help them. Then... then you feel nothing because suddenly you... float. In other words, you reached constant acceleration so you no longer feel you are falling. And that feeling is amazing, it can't be described. It's like being in a rollercoaster: adrenaline, speed, body sensations, the vacuum in your stomach. But it doesn't last long as the parachute needs to open after a minute or so. Then gliding with the parachute is just... out of this world. You see the world below so big, so magnificent, so green, so pure... and all is silence around you. Pure crystal clear silence.

As a diver...i'm going to say that you don't know what's actually down there. It's amazing, peaceful and just another world. I've introduced so many people to diving and even just snorkeling that regret ever having the view that the ocean is a terrifying place and that they would never dive and they couldn't wait the go again. But yeah yesterday's dive with sea turtles was truly terrifying and horrible experience 😛

I'm not amused!

It's an acquired taste, just like alcohol and coffee. I'd posit it's healthier than alcohol. (All should be done in moderation)

Why Instagram in particular? All social media has its downsides but I don't think think Instagram is worse than any other.

... issued and sold by a board game company. And that tells all that is to tell about these.

What is this? I’m too scared to Google it (edit) thanks so much for telling me…..I did not want to have to look for it. I just knew it’d be bad!

It's delicious. Crab is delicious 😋 too

But being bad at it is the point

Just can't commit to something permanent on my skin for life. Nothing is that profound or meaningful, I change and grow

I bought one once when on vacation in China. Stank like hell but though the taste was pretty good.

IKR? touching my eyeball creeps me out - I can't do it.

Well. This is when the list starts to include regular activities that millions of people do everyday and they really can be overcome easily, so...I'm out

I had cataract surgery on both eyes a month apart. Going in for the first one was the hardest thing I've ever done...I was voluntarily letting someone poke me in the eye with a very sharp object. But, I survived with no complications so the second one was much easier.

Your eye lids touch them all the time.

Technically you never touch your eye. You touch the contact which then touches your eye. You never touch the eyeball.

I wish I could, but I can barely get eyedrops in my eyes. Putting my finger on my eye just isn't going to happen.

Oddly, I'm fine with this, but I respect the no-way-no-how people have about it.

I ruined my eyes in the 1970ths with the hard glassy ones - when there was only a little dust corn under them, they rubbed my lens totally, i have a look now like through a star lens, everything is weird now.

I tried them and didn't like them.

Eyes are only touched by the soft lens and solution. But putting them in was not the worse of it. It was WEARING them all day. 18 months of trying and gave it up.

tell that to 4 year old me who would touch her own eyeballs for fun. i was a weird kid.

I touch my eyes every day, lol. Don't have contacts though.

i have contacts and for some reason i love touching my eye with my contacts on, its soothing

My eyes are just too dry...I tried them for awhile, but could only leave them in up to 4 hours, so it wasn't worth it.

I had them for years and after getting used to them for a few days, you don't really feel them. But now my allergies have changed and my tears are more acidic (I think) and soft lenses tend to turn opaque after a few days. So glasses for life I guess.

Yea no thanks. Can't even look at my friend doing it and even the picture here gives me slight anxiety

Never never never. My glasses are half my personality.

I got them once even today, almost 25 or 26 years after i got them, i still cry the 120€ that i spent on them ( well not 120€ but the equivalent to )

I can easily touch my eyes but I’m afraid that if I blink too hard I may break it while it’s still on my eye

That against your religion?

This can actually be really cool and leave you very energetic.

I love the smell of coffee, but I hate the taste of it. Every since I tried a moccachino, I can't start my day without one of some sort.
